Name: Time Killers
Author/Vendor: Incredible Technologies/Black Pearl Software/T*HQ
Released: 1993
Type: Fighting
Language: English
Premise: Throughout time, Death has tried to overcome his enemy, Life.... After centuries of plotting his ultimate revenge, Death has taken these heroic warriors from the entire span of humanity's past, present and future, and pitted them in a ferocious battle in which there can be only one winner. Now these great champions stand frozen in time, ready to do battle in the ultimate contest of fighting skill - against Death himself - for lasting immortality. All the action of the original arcade hit from Strata! (box promo)
Impressions: Action yes, but asthetics? No. This is a horrid-looking fighter that somehow manages some nice touches of black humor. Laden with jerky animation and ragged gameplay. Its style reminds me of that old Epyx classic Barbarian, so far as it goes.
